Not much to report on this week. The babies are continuing to grow stronger and gain weight each and every day! As of today, Grady weighs 5 lbs. 10 oz. and Adalynn weighs 5 lbs. 1 oz. They are really starting to fill out in their cheeks and their thighs! ;)
This week Grady has made leaps and bounds. He is starting to realize that every 3 hours he is hungry. He doesn't cry for his food, but he is definitely wide awake when it comes time to eat. He also turns his head and looks toward people when they talk to him. As far as bottle feeding, he is up to 5 bottles a day out of 8 feedings. He completes all of his bottles that he is given. They gave him a hearing test this week and he passed. He is ready to get home!
Adalynn has also been doing a great job. She is up to 4 bottles a day out of 8 feedings. She isn't completing as many bottles as brother, but she is finishing over half of each bottle. She has reflux so it makes completing her bottles a little bit harder. Adalynn is also responding to people when they talk to her, she turns and looks in their direction. She also passed her hearing exam this week!
I found a tree for each of them to have at their bed side. I had so much fun decorating the trees for my babies today!
